Instructional Resources

Educators frequently ask, "Now that I know who needs help in which areas, what do I do?”

Acuity™ is specifically designed to answer this question by giving educators the opportunity to assign additional instructional resources.

Instruction is accessible directly from assessment results and can be electronically assigned to a class as a whole, or to individual students, using the “Assign” feature on Acuity reports.

Instructional activities are designed to:

  • Engage students with interactive activities
  • Improve student achievement in key areas
  • Intervene in time to make a difference

Each engaging instructional activity provides extra practice and instruction and includes three important components:

  • Introduction and explanation related to a given skill
  • Guided practice
  • Opportunity to evaluate progress throughout instruction

Below is an example of an engaging instructional activity. You will notice two parts; one provides students with background knowledge about a content area, and the second part of the instructional activity can be scored so your teachers can monitor instruction on an ongoing basis.

If students select an incorrect answer, they receive instant corrective feedback, which allows them to immediately adjust their thinking and actively participate in the assessment process.

While students are working, their answers are captured and viewable by educators on helpful reports.
